Quinn,
At one time Susan was sponcered by East Coast ATV, dont know if now though so you might could check their site & see.

Only had one little quick shot of her sailing a jump & you could see anything it was so fast.

Maybe some of the more technical guys here could help out on this, but doesn't powdercoating weaken an aluminum frame?
I would think the guys at Paul's shop would know that.

I dont see to many happy people in the photo and from the looks of the recolor job I wouldnt be to happy either.

To me that doesn't look like a bike made for blingstar I mean there all about the aluminum and black look but they wanted something that popped thats def a eye grabber but maybe not in a good way. It doesn't match at all black,neon yellow,and a weird orange it think? I dunno... lol

The way the show went all it looked like was the Dasa pipe but im not sure. My guess is its all cosmetic.

Hey,
At least a 4 wheeler got some attention on all chopper bike show. That is a feat just in itself.
That is some wild colors though.

Thats A good way to look at it I tottally agree, And I think its cool that they built one for mx, by the style of there show youd think It would be less for actuall use, like a show quad

should be sponsored by skittles and meth.

but remember, the guys name was odie. if my memory serves me correctly, garfield was the brains of the operation.

skittles and meth that is possibly the funniest thing i have ever heard. Hit the nail on the head if you ask me.

It either skittles and meth sponsorship or the magic bus head shop and tie-die superplex.

that whole thing was bull, that kid was a cry baby, sucked at riding. i know a lot of people that would love suppport from bling star and that are much faster than that kid. he high sides a burm gets stuck, 5 minutes later bling star gives him a team spot. haha

I don't know what's sadder. The bike, or that people believe this. The sponsorship was for the shows purpose, not egor.

like neil said the prime time on tv was worth it even if that color scheme isnt everyones forte or you think the kid was a **** rider etc... the point is they took the time to build a somewhat decent race quad on a chopper show thats pretty well known and i think thats cool i was actullay gonna try and email paul jr designs when he had his first show or whatever about potentially building a frame or some sort of other quad products they have the money and the machinery to get into the industry if they really wanted and idk if any of you saw the first part of the jr vs sr series but he wasnt doing **** untill he decided to build the pjd bike and geico threw him a bone

If i had Co. Id have JR built a quad for me & CO for $50-60 thousand your CO would in realty be paying $50-60 thousand for long commercial thats cheap for that much exposure! Hope other manufactors do the same ! love to see a them build a V-twin MX quad.
